no mention on how to create an lvm once your raid is created.
(funny: the example given is /usr, maybe an overdose of Jack Daniel's!)
Of course you are using an *old* version of documentation. F18 was long before F25 where we are now.
As I already mentioned. I did the install in a configuration which I thought you wanted to end up with and I did so successfully. It is irrelevant to refer to obsolete documentation where what you want may not have been possible.
On this page:

BTW I think I have found how to do: when your lvm is created you click on "modify" (I don't know if it is the right word on this button in the English version) and you can access to a dropdown menu where --- surprise! --- you can find RAID.
Two remarks: 1- It is illogical to me to create first lvm then to create the underlaying device on which the lvm is created. When you do these configuration "by hand" you first create the raid devices, then the vgm, lvm etc. then the file systems.
No need to do anything manually.
2- Modifier (in French) means that you want to correct something wrong you have done before not to add some options...
Sounds as if you should donate some translations to the anaconda team. (Wonder if there may be a difference in wording for French and Canadian-French as well as other localized versions.)
Moreover, as far as I have explored this "modify" feature, I cannot see, on the anaconda page devoted to partitionning, that a RAID will be created! I have to cross my fingers that the modification has been taken into account.
I did the install a second time in order to document the steps which absolutely work.
